Name Meaning

Characteristically Swiss name, first borne by a 3rd-century saint who lived as a hermit near Zurich. She is said to have come originally from Thebes in Egypt, and the origin of her name is obscure. This name is now occasionally used in the English-speaking world, where it is taken as an elaboration of Vera .
